ELBOW have landed their second number one album as Little Fictions debuts at the top of the charts.
The Bury band's frontman Guy Garvey said that having people outside of the industry understand their work is the "best part" about making music.
He told OfficialCharts.com: "You always hope that you're going to go up the charts. We've been in the top 10 six times which is not bad, but to be number one is great.
"The lovely thing about it is that people outside of music understand it. This is the best part about it for us."
He added that it makes their parents "proud".
Five of the Brit Award and Mercury Prize-winning band's albums have reached the UK top 10 since the release of their debut record, Asleep In The Back, in 2001.
Little Fictions, Elbow's seventh album and the follow-up to their 2014 chart-topping effort The Take Off And Landing Of Everything, knocked last week's number one, the La La Land movie soundtrack, off the top spot and into second place.
